    • Effective February 3, 2012, the New York Mercantile Exchange, Inc. (NYMEX or Exchange) delisted certain contract days currently listed for Brent CFD (Platts) vs. Brent Front Month (Platts) Swap futures (commodity code 1C; chapter 319) and certain contract weeks for Brent CFD (Platts) vs. Brent Front Month (Platts) Weekly Swap futures (commodity code CFA; chapter 1144), respectively.  As previously published in Special Executive Report (SER) 6093, dated January 25, 2012, the Exchange announced the implementation of new listing schedules for products 1C and CFA as a result of changes implemented by Platts, the final settlement index provider, to the publication schedule for the first month cash Brent crude oil price assessment.
      The new listing schedules for each of products 1C and CFA, which will become effective on trade date February 13, 2012 pending all relevant CFTC regulatory review periods, resulted in the delisting of the products mentioned in the attached advisory notice.
